Supporting change impact analysis for intelligent agent systems
Software maintenance and evolution is an important and lengthy phase in the software life-cycle which can account for as much as two-thirds of the total software development costs. Intelligent agent technology has evolved rapidly over the past few years as evidenced by the increasing number of agent systems in many different domains. Intelligent agent systems with their distinct characteristics...
متن کاملDynamic change impact analysis for maintaining and evolving agent systems
In contrast to an increasing number of agent-based applications in various domains, there has been very little work on maintenance and evolution of agent systems. This paper addresses this gap with a focus on change impact analysis, i.e. estimating the potential eects of changes before they are made as an agent system evolves. We propose a technique for performing impact analysis in an agent sy...
متن کاملChange Impact Analysis for Context-Aware Applications in Intelligent Environments
As software systems for context-aware applications and intelligent environments become increasingly complex and adaptive, the need to understand and predict the impact of changes grows. Such changes may manifest themselves (1) as alterations in the way users behave, (2) as software customizations to handle new requirements, and (3) as variations on the dynamic context in which intelligent envir...
متن کاملOntologies Supporting Intelligent Agent-Based Assistance
Intelligent agent-based assistants are systems that try to simplify peoples work based on computers. Recent research on intelligent assistance has presented significant results in several and different situations. Building such a system is a difficult task that requires expertise in numerous artificial intelligence and engineering disciplines. A key point in this kind of system is knowledge han...
متن کاملSupporting Impact Analysis and Change Propagation in Software Engineering Environments
Impact analysis and change propagation are among the major issues of software change management. In this paper, we introduce an approach to providing impact analysis and change propagation support as an integral part of software engineering environments, so that they can be applied during bath software development and maintenance. In this approach, the activities are carried out on the original...
